The supervision and exam for the students of the first cycle of Khaita Educational Program took place on April 17–19 in Dzamling Gar, Tenerife.
Examinees explained simple and complex dances, shared their understanding of Khaita principles, knowledge of its history, goals and other aspects, and explained the basic Khaita movements.
The final task was to study and perform together a dance with complex choreography, Tashi Thogang Nyiwod (བཀྲ་ཤིས་མཐོ་སྒང་ཉི་འོད།, Auspicious Highland Sunshine), which was especially challenging due to the students living in different countries. We performed the dance on the graduation ceremony.
Newly graduated instructors Eva Leick and Martina Krejčová share sharing their impressions and a story of intensive preparation and successful passing of the exam in The Mirror article.
